Weird, she claims to have deleted the thread because she wasn't clear, but the only thing she's changed is her assertion that the hosts are both American? 🤔🤔🤔 Call me a conspiracy theorist but I don't believe she's listened to word one of the podcast and has just gone in two footed and hosed it.

keep punching joe posted:I just don't buy it, same as the theory that UK terfery is driven by US evangelical cash. Sure maybe there is some funding but fundamentally (lol) it's just that this island is full of bigoted busybodies with their noses in everyone else's poo poo. I reckon it's good for getting things started. You invite like three mid rank journalists to an all expenses paid weekend where you pump them full of mid range champagne and tell them about the evils of whatever you want people to hate and Britain has such an incestuous pit of a media class that the bullshit spreads and mutates like Covid in a home. Them blaming "Russian Troll Farms" is probably more of an outrage that they cut out them as the middle men more than anything else.

HopperUK posted:Listen, if we're not going to solve all problems at once, we shouldn't solve any at all, or it's not fair. You could solve the problem of Russian Billionaires influencing elections and politics if you put in measures to stop rich people in general influencing elections. But that's not what they're focusing on. They're not even focusing on Foreign Billionaires because that might annoy Murdoch. They're focusing on them being Russian, which is utterly useless.

I can't believe that basic rear end "don't get hyper focused on ethnicity rather than capital" is such a hard thought to parse. Russian disinformation's effect on public life is negligible at best. Your Granny seeing Facebook posts about how Angela Merkel is going to arm all the Muslims has less of an impact than the BBC bringing on Daily Express journalists saying the same thing. Carol Cadwaller's journalism is good for finding out what a select group of money grubbing con men are up to but her analysis is worth gently caress all when her focus is on Russia being a unique destabilising force in the world rather than just another dick at the gangbang of capitalism.

Bobby Deluxe posted:I mean, not really? He's still on his bullshit, he's doubling down more than ever on defending Rowling and being a lovely transphobe. He has lost out massively. He's driven his family, his coworkers and basically everyone in his life away from him and it's had serious emotional and financial impact on him. And the people who radicalised him into it, yer mumsnet and guardian transphobes, have all abandoned him because he's too much of a liability. This is what happens when you deplatform a true believer. He's going to keep doubling down until he does something he can't come back from.

They'd rather get half the money they could from rich guys than more money through small donations because theyre in it for the comfy executive job where they work four hours a week and make £500,000 a year. They're hollow careerists with the occasional psycho true believer like Luke Akehurst who will stay in the party so long as he's fed a diet of Labour students.
